Carreer and university
- Noagediscrimination at MATY AL version: Use the computer to get the adult job for elders, newspaper will still yield elder jobs.

Multi purpose objects

For “manual adoption”
PleasantSims has a video here about how to do it and what mods are needed:
Tools
- Object Relocator
- The Object Relocator is a utility for moving Buy and Build Mode objects around in the catalog en-masse by changing their Room, Function, Sub-Function, Community, Build and Sub-Build flags, and also their Price.
Cheat codes you may need
boolprop controlpets on – Lets you add actions for pets AND roommates
boolprop petactioncancel true – Lets you cancel actions for pets AND roommates
setquartertileplacement on – After you’ve entered the cheat “setquartertileplacement on”, you can toggle it on and off with ctrl+f.
boolProp dormSpecificToolsDisabled false – enable build mode on a community lot. Handy if you need to delete a sim with the flu or something
